v.

Rashard Jerome
Rivers, Appellant.

Appeal From Charleston County

R. Markley Dennis, Jr., Circuit Court
Judge

Unpublished Opinion No.  2010-UP-487 

Submitted November 1, 2010 – Filed
November 4, 2010

APPEAL DISMISSED

Deputy Chief Appellate Defender Wanda H.
Carter, of Columbia, for Appellant.

Attorney General Henry Dargan McMaster,
Chief Deputy Attorney General John W. McIntosh, and Assistant Deputy Attorney
General Salley W. Elliott, all of Columbia; and Solicitor Scarlett Anne Wilson,
of Charleston, for Respondent.

PER CURIAM:  Rashard Jerome Rivers pled guilty to first-degree
burglary, involuntary manslaughter, and grand larceny.  Rivers received
twenty-three years' imprisonment for burglary, and five years' each on
involuntary manslaughter and grand larceny, to run concurrently.  Rivers
appealed, arguing the plea court erred in failing to adequately advise him of
the sentencing consequences of his plea.  After a thorough review of the record and counsel's brief pursuant
to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), and State v. Williams,
305 S.C. 116, 406 S.E.2d 357 (1991), we dismiss the appeal and grant counsel's
motion to be relieved.[1]

APPEAL
DISMISSED.

THOMAS,
PIEPER, and GEATHERS, JJ., concur. 

[1] We decide this case without oral argument pursuant to
Rule 215, SCACR.
